The Target - Universal IDN acceptance Fourth Ukrainian Internet Governance Forum IGF-UA Kiev, Ukraine,October 2013
IDN: Today & Tomorrow 2 Today: 40 IDN TLD Tomorrow: about 150 IDN (inc. New gTLD)
IDN vs “Classic” 3 .РФ is one of the largest IDN TLD in the world: 813 400 domain names (for September 1, 2013) The main problem Lack of support of cyrillic domains by the largest main services: it’s impossible to send a letter for an email address such as following имя@домен.рф
New Cyrillic IDNs 4 We need a fully functional e-mail!!! And other IDNs:
Universal IDN acceptance 5 E-mail functions of the IDN-domains are not in demand so it’s too early to speak about cyrillic e-mail support AGAINST: Russian is the second popular language in the world .РФ Domain exists for more than 3 years and it’s compatible with existing ccTLD on growth speed FOR: In the nearest future the following top level domains will appear: .РУС, .МОСКВА (“Moscow”), .ДЕТИ (“children”), .ОНЛАЙН (“online”), .САЙТ (“site”) etc.
Universal IDN acceptance: RFCs 6 • RFC 6530 "Overview and Framework for Internationalized Email", February 2012 • RFC 6531 "SMTP Extension for Internationalized Email" (February 2012) • RFC 6532 "Internationalized Email Headers", February 2012 • RFC 6533 "Internationalized Delivery Status and Disposition Notifications", February 2012 • RFC 6855 "IMAP Support for UTF-8", March 2013 • RFC 6856 "Post Office Protocol Version 3 (POP3) Support for UTF-8", March 2013
Universal IDN acceptance 7 1 2
Universal IDN acceptance 8 3 Apple added new domain zones including .RU and .РФ on standard iPhone keyboard
9 Side Effect • .РФ domain zone is among cleanest in the World; • It is malware-free; • Lack of email support is the primary reason Traditional electronic mail is the main virus- malware- carrier
